Getting your financial
house in order
By JENNIFER BLANCHARD
Financial adviser, Commonwealth Financial Group
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
SEPT.
23, 2010 - Just as it's important to have your house ready for the
height of hurricane season - plywood to board up windows, loose
shingles repaired - it's crucial to have your financial house in
order, as well. What would happen if you suddenly had to evacuate?
What if you returned to find your home destroyed? Would you have
gathered the necessary financial documents so there was no interruption
in your financial life?

Create
and maintain a legacy box where you store important financial information,
making it easy to take in the event of a hurricane, a fire or if
you lost a spouse. Oftentimes, one spouse tends to have a more active
role in handling the family finances, and the one left behind may
not even know what accounts exist and where they are held. This
legacy box can be a valuable tool that saves a lot of time and stress.
I
recommend using a file box you can grab easily (fireproof and waterproof
options are available). Create a master document that details all
pertinent information and then have a file folder for each category
containing necessary documents.
Include the following:
-
Property information: address, purchase price, owner(s),
purchase date and current market value. Include your primary residence
and any other real estate holdings. In a file titled "real
estate," add property tax statements. Keep deeds in your
bank safe deposit box.
- Mortgage
information,
including mortgage company name, loan number, owner(s), start
date, interest date, original loan time period, payment amount
and frequency, and outstanding principle amount. In a file titled
"liabilities," include loan statements.
-
Personal assets listing (cars,
boats, etc) to include asset name, purchase amount, owner(s),
purchase date and current market value. Also list all information
on any related loans and include loan statements in the "liabilities"
file.
- Listing
of all financial assets such
as checking accounts, savings account, CDs, non-qualified investment
accounts, college savings funds, 401(k), pension plans, IRAs and
annuities. Include the name of the asset (type of account) and
financial institution, account number, owner(s) and approximate
market value. Include web address, login and password information
on all online-access accounts. Keep a copy of a statement on each
of your accounts in a file titled "investments." If
you own any stock certificates be sure to keep those in your safe
deposit box.
Listing
of insurance information,
including medical, homeowner's, auto and umbrella insurance with
the name of insured(s), insurance company, policy number, annual
premium, company phone number, agent name and coverage limits.
For life insurance, include company name, policy number, type,
insured, policy-owner, beneficiary, annual premium and death benefit.
For disability and long-term care insurance, include company name,
policy number, name of insured, waiting period, benefit period,
benefit amount and monthly premium. In a file titled "health
insurance," include your medical, long-term care and disability
insurance policies. Place your life insurance policies in a file
titled "life insurance" and place your homeowner's,
umbrella, and car insurance policies in a file named "property
and casualty insurance."
- Include
a listing of your professional advisers
and their contact information (attorney, CPA, trustee, financial
adviser, primary physician and clergy).
- Information
on your safe deposit box,
such as bank name, box number and location of key and what important
documents are in it: will, trust agreements, power of attorney,
birth certificate, marriage license, car titles and deeds. Place
copies of these documents in a file in the box titled legal documents,
but always house the originals in your bank safe deposit box.
Get
in the habit of updating this information regularly -- each time
a new large purchase is made and a liability is retired. Also, update
the statements on investments periodically to reflect a more appropriate
market value.
While
putting together a tool like this will take some time, it will save
you both time and money in the long run. With your financial house
in order, it will be so much easier for you and your family to access
important information at critical times, giving you greater peace
of mind today and more security for yourself and your heirs tomorrow.

Welcome
to the Lowcountry! Here's how to dive right in
By ANN THRASH, contributing editor
SEPT.
23, 2010 - A nice young couple from Atlanta moved to our street
recently - - husband, wife, year-old baby, and two dogs.

Thrash
|
In
the days since we first met them, I've found myself keeping a mental
list of stuff I want to be sure to tell them next time I see them
-- not just things like "Recycling gets picked up every other
Wednesday," but things that might help them explore and enjoy
the Lowcountry even more during these first few settling-in months.
Here
are a couple of the things on my list -- and if you've got additions
or suggestions, e-mail
me and I'll pass your advice along in a future column.
- Take
in a Citadel football game. The Bulldogs do pageantry better
than anyone else in town. The entire Corps of Cadets marches into
the stadium shortly before the game begins, and there are bagpipers
and a great band (the Regimental Band) and Spike the Bulldog.
Add in Tony the Peanut Man and it's a winning combination on a
Saturday afternoon.
- Go
to one of the locally owned garden centers for advice on anything
you might want to do in your yard. No offense to the big-box stores,
but the local guys can always tell you what really, REALLY works
here and what doesn't - like if you plant pansies right now, they'll
be toast by Halloween. The local garden centers also tend to have
excellent selections of native plants that have become acclimated
over the generations to our heat, humidity and bugs.
-
Go to one of the farmers markets, find a bench to sit on
near the musical entertainment, and watch the people go by for
a while. You can take your dogs on their leashes. Then stock up
on veggies, pasta and fresh-cut flowers before heading home.
-
Buy some sweet-tasting fresh shrimp
from the docks at Shem Creek. You know the surefire way to tell
your shrimp are local? Buy them with the heads still on. If you're
not sure how to head them and peel them, we'll show you.
-
Go
to the Coastal Carolina Fair. It starts in just over a month
(on Oct. 28), and it's a rite of fall in the Lowcountry. Buy food
that you know is bad for you, ride the latest crazy roller coaster
(before you eat, of course), spend a little too much change to
win a hideous stuffed animal that the baby will love anyway, and
enjoy the entertainers (James Gregory, Ricky Skaggs, 38 Special,
and The Marvelettes, Coasters and Platters -- talk about something
for everyone!). All the while, you'll be supporting the local
charities that benefit from the fair every year, thanks to the
Exchange Club of Charleston.
- Try
to avoid the intersection of Bowman Road and Highway 17 in
Mount Pleasant during these three time periods: 7 a.m. to 9:30
a.m., 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and the rest of the day.
- We've
got so many wonderful restaurants
here that it's hard to know where to start in figuring out which
ones will ultimately become your favorites - but the 30th annual
Taste of Charleston on Oct. 10 is a good way to sample fare from
a diverse group of restaurants without having to put a ton of
miles on the car. More than 50 local dining spots will set up
shop at Boone Hall Plantation and serve sample portions of their
specialties, and the event's sponsor, the Greater Charleston Restaurant
Association, always delivers a fun afternoon. It benefits great
community causes, too.
- In
another few weeks,
when you start hearing things about the Festival of Lights at
James Island County Park and the Holiday Parade of Boats, mark
the dates on your calendar and plan to go.
-
Hop a tour boat to Fort Sumter.
It always surprises me how many longtime residents of the Lowcountry
have never been out to see the historic fort in Charleston Harbor
- lots of them seem to put it in the "I'll get around to
that one day" category. But with the 150th anniversary of
the Civil War coming up beginning next year, traffic to the fort
is sure to pick up, so visit now, while the weather is moderate
and the crowds aren't likely to be too bad.
- If
the mayor comes on TV during
hurricane season and tells you to hit the road, do it.

FEEDBACK
Hopes
people "get it" about need for precinct changes
To
Charleston Currents:
I intended commenting last week on this very importance piece you
wrote [Brack,
9/20] (concerning the need for change in party precinct
organization). I am hoping this reaches the party deciders and will
be a consideration in the near future.
Wonderful
article, as are all in Charleston Currents. Outshines the P-C on
any day.

Shred together,
stay green together
By
GREG GARVAN, contributing editor
Garvan
|
SEPT.
23, 2010 - Staples Office Company is experimenting with a new green
business feature, especially for small green businesses: do it yourself
shredding. They have installed machines in the self-service copy
areas in three districts across the country. It costs $5 for seven
minutes of shredding and you can put in lots of pages at once, this
is an industrial strength model. Imagine the tiny shredders that
can now stay out of landfills while we use these shared machines.
Seeking
terrific green stories: At a regional conference in North
Carolina last week, a panel of five great pre-public companies
talked about why being green businesses has made such a difference
for them. Better World Books (Alabama and Georgia) and Namaste
Solar (Colorado) were my two favorite stories. They put right
out there in their everyday work and products the mission story
of why they operate like they do. BW Books has saved over 35 million
books from the landfill, and used them to support literacy programs
all over the world! Who is doing something like this in the Charleston/
Lowcountry area and wants to share their story? Write greg@moneywithamission.com
and let me know.
Green
Fair is Sunday: Last reminder for the
Charleston Green Fair this Sunday at Marion Square from noon
to 8 p.m. Come and be exposed to a world of green services and
businesses and learn how you can add so much more green to your
life.

The
Ashley River: A historic and natural treasure
Mile
for mile, the relatively short Ashley River is perhaps unrivaled
in the Southeast, if not the nation, for its history, its diversity
of habitats, and its location in a major city. Emerging from the
Wassamassaw and Cypress Swamps in Berkeley and Dorchester counties,
it flows only about sixty miles before joining the Cooper River
in Charleston harbor.
Despite
its short length, the river transitions through three separate types
of riverine ecosystems: a blackwater stream, a freshwater tidal
river, and a saltwater tidal river, each producing extensive and
different types of wetlands. These diverse ecosystems and their
transitional zones generate an abundant variety of plants and animals
and represent the natural history of the lower coastal plain of
the state.
The
Ashley River played a central role in the history of South Carolina.
The colony's first English settlement was established along its
banks at Albemarle Point in 1670. Originally named the Kiawah River
after the region's Native American inhabitants, the river was renamed
in honor of Lord Anthony Ashley Cooper, one of the original Lords
Proprietors. A decade later the settlement was relocated to the
peninsula downstream, where the Ashley joins the Cooper to form
an outstanding harbor, opening into the Atlantic. This juncture
enabled Charleston to become a major colonial seaport, even though
the Ashley was short and did not connect the seaport with the interior
via a navigable waterway. This circumstance helped isolate the Lowcountry
from the upstate and promoted settlement of the upstate by immigrants
from North Carolina and Virginia rather than from Charleston.
Although
limited to the coastal area, the Ashley did serve as an important
route of regional transportation and commerce. Its navigable terminus
was Dorchester, a major trading post settled in 1697 about twenty
miles upstream from Charleston. Along the river's length were established
prominent plantations, such as Middleton Place, Magnolia, and Drayton
Hall. Vessels ranging from canoes to rice barges and schooners connected
these places and were manned by Europeans and African Americans,
both enslaved and free. During the postbellum era, phosphate was
mined extensively from lands on both sides of the Ashley, and docks
for barges lined the river. These varied activities left some important
archaeological sites. As a result of its historical significance
and natural beauty, the Ashley was named a National Historic District
in 1994 and a State Scenic River in 1999.
The
irony is that its qualities also make the Ashley River highly vulnerable
to the negative effects of suburban sprawl, pollution, and heavy
boat traffic. Private organizations, public agencies, and citizens
are taking steps to protect the Ashley and to find ways to balance
conservation and growth. Caught amidst these contending pressures,
the future of the Ashley River will indicate much about South Carolina
in the years to come.

Five for
pets

Linville
|
Carol Linville,
the founder of Pet Helpers on Folly Road, has been a local animal
rescue advocate for longer than our dog has had fleas. We asked
her for her list of five things you can do for your pet.
- Identify
your pet with a microchip: In emergencies, collars can fall off,
but microchips are permanent.
- Provide
your pet with clean water, food (according to a vet's recommendations),
and shelter from the elements.
- Spend time
each day walking your dog on a leash; they enjoy this companionship.
- Make sure
your pets, especially if they spend a majority of their time outdoors,
have their vaccines up to date.
- Understand
the pets look to you for protection, and most of all, provide
them with love!
